An aircraft monument mounting system is disclosed having a rail (20) adapted to support a monument panel (30) thereon, the rail (20) including a recess for receiving an attachment device from below. The attachment device comprises a threaded fastener (62) such as a poppet, a lock nut (64), an eccentric washer (68), and a thumbwheel (66). Rotation of the thumbwheel (66) causes the eccentric washer (68) to move the panel (30) laterally, and the lock nut can raise or lower the panel (30), providing flexibility as to the positioning of the panel (30) without disrupting the attachment point to the aircraft structure.
